The relationship of homeopathy to detoxification arguably extends to its very origins: horrified by the effects of drugging with mercury, opium, and quinine, the most popular medicines of his day, homeopathy's progenitor Samuel Hahnemann pioneered a less-poisonous system of healing. Using the same toxic substances, which in rare cases seemed to have miraculous healing qualities, …

Few food additives have stirred up more controversy than monosodium glutamate (MSG). Occurring naturally in certain foods, added to almost everything these days, hidden beneath an ever-growing list of deceptive ingredient names, the controversy continues as to whether or not MSG is actually that harmful.
Though pollen is often blamed for allergies, and while it plays an undeniable part, it is unlikely that pollen alone should cause otherwise healthy people to suffer such misery.
Encouraging patients to make healthy lifestyle changes is integral to the practice of holistic medicine, since so many modern diseases relate directly to modern lifestyles. The new year provides a perfect occasion to prioritize this with patients, since so many people spontaneously resolve to relinquish old habits around this time, or begin new ones, often with the specific goal of improving their health. But we all know from experience how many of these people are likely to fail, and wonder perhaps if there are natural means to assist patients in keeping their new year’s resolutions to become healthier.
As a healthcare provider, there are few things more satisfying than watching a patient's condition improve or resolve completely with a single treatment. Among the many holistic treatment modalities, homeopathy is one of few that targets the vital force directly, and has been the agent of some of the most dramatic natural cures, in some cases the sole agent. In some cases, it is a single dose of a single remedy, and these cases are perhaps the most satisfying although more often, it requires repetition of the remedy or multiple remedies to achieve a satisfying result, as anyone who has worked with homeopathy knows.
It is ironic that just as the world seems to be emerging from one global catastrophe, as if on cue, another one comes along to take its place. The war between Russia and Ukraine has become a significant source of stress for many people around the world. In this case, the stress as well as the conflict's geographic and historical associations may call to mind a specific herb, known for its role in stress relief.
Sodium is an essential constituent of every tissue in the body, whereas mercury is a toxin with no known role in physiology. Salt is so crucial to physiology that many mammals will actively seek it out in the form of salt licks and so important to humans that it was once used as currency, whereas mercury exposure is associated with neurodegenerative disease and is widely feared. But if a patient suffers from hypertension it is likely to be salt they are told to avoid, even though a drastic reduction in sodium intake has been shown to have only a minimal effect on blood pressure, resulting in average reductions in the order of 5.5/2.8 mm Hg .
